rain at Clarendon upon last Saturday, and

Mr.. Cleveland's Honesty.

1t is noticeable that whenever and
wherever mistakes have been made in
the selection of unfit persons to hold
office-errors of judgment which, I'M
der our political system, must always
intervene to a greater or less extent
with all parties the President and
members of the Cabinet have been
swift to apply corrective One of
the cardinal principles underlying the
administration of President Cleveland
is to give the country the services of
the very best men within the ranks of
the Democratic party, and in this re-
gard he has carefully scrutinized, not
alone the recommendations of appli-
cants for Office, but in cases of import
ant appointments he has insisted upon
personal interviews in order to deter
mine within his own mind the essen
tials of fitness and immediate capacity.

The Happy Time Foretold by Lincoln
Has Come at Last.

The Happy Time Foretold by Lincoln
Has Come at Last.
The Presidents journey through the
South has at last brought about what
Mr.. Lincoln foresaw with the vision OF
prophet. In his first inaugural the
soul of him spoke in this final sen.
tence:
We are not enemies. but friends. We must
not be enemies. Though passion may have
strained, it must not break. our bonds of at
lection. The mystic chords of memory, stretch
ing from every battlefield and patriotic grave
TO every loving heart and hearthstone, all over
this broad land viii yet swell the chorus OF
the Union when again touched. as surely they
will be by the better angels of our nature.
The time foretold more than a score
of years ago has come at last. The
voice that prophesied the power of the
better nature in our people is silenced
and the inspired soul that trusted and
hoped is long with the saints, but he
did not misjudge his countrymen, and
at last the banners of the Union max
their welcome to President of the
Republic who comes in the spirit of
peace to prove that while passion has
strained, it has not broken the bonds
of affection.
The black people of the South, de-
ceived into the belief that a change of
parties meant rebondage for them.
look at last on the noble face of the
man who was to be their enemy and
hail him as their President. in whose
hands their liberties are sacred. be-
cause their freedom is fixed in that
law which he impartialy enforces for
white as well as black. So the pas
sions of the past melt into good fellow
ship renewed. The spectre of a race
instruction goes bowling down the
wind to come up no more, and the
people are not northern, nor southern,
nor eastern. nor western. They are
American. Let the curtain fall upon
the tragedy of our history. Clear the
stage and dismiss the audience, for it
is surely a land of Union and libe1 ty,
now and forever, one and inseparable. -

put forth singly, without the joining
of any hand, without even the notice
of any other eye. It is easy, when
societies, etc, are in fashion, to trust
all to them and to loose our religious
identity in the mass tn at makes up the

culture and growth that we do this;
besides. every cause needs individual
helpers and can only prosper properly
when they are secured to it.-United

when man goes on in the most melodra-
matte manner, making every one quake in

Fairfax shuddered at the bare idea and,

convinced him of the necessity of secrecy,

The surface of the Mediterranea

The surface of the Mediterranean
has been found by accurate measures
ment to lie little below that OF the
ocean, it resembling somewhat q
shallow funnel with greatest depth
coinciding with the region where the
water is most salt Vari ations in the
apparent height of the shores are now
thought to be due to changes In the
level of the water, especially marked
near the apex of the funnel, where the
recorded changes in the coast line
reach twenty to twenty-threc feet
Recent observers also attribute the
supposed oscillations in the shores OF
the Baltic and Black seas to changes
in the volume of water caused by vary
ing rainfall and outflow. Boston
